paper v2.31.3: §2 ¶3 per-block growth values were architecture mix-up

The paper claimed DFA/SB/CB had max-per-block growth of "237×, 12000×,
96×" on the 4-block d=256 ResMLP. Re-aggregating from the protocol audit
JSON (results/protocol_audit/audit_table_s42_s123_s456.json) gives:

  DFA d=256: max growth 2043, 979, 2545 → 3-seed mean ~1856 (≈1.9e3)
  SB  d=256: max growth 12781, 24126, 10467 → mean ~15791 (≈1.6e4)
  CB  d=256: max growth 1820, 695, 1034 → mean ~1183 (≈1.2e3)

The paper's "237" and "96" actually match the BatchNorm CNN audit
(audit_cnn_3seed.json gives DFA 214/235/263 → mean 237 and CB 108/90/91
→ mean 96), not the d=256 ResMLP. SB "12000" was close to ResMLP s42
single-seed (12781) but the other two values were apparently picked
from the wrong architecture. This was an architecture mix-up that
under-reported the d=256 ResMLP per-block growth by ~8x for DFA and
~12x for CB.

Updated to the actual 3-seed mean values from the matched d=256 audit.
The numbers are now an order of magnitude larger and more clearly
"extreme" than the original mistaken values.

The CNN per-block growth claim of "up to 237×" in §5 ¶3 (which says
"the BatchNorm CNN ... shows strong growth under DFA, with max-per-
block growth up to 237×") is correct — that 237 is the right value
for the CNN context.
